The Barrett MRAD .338 Lapua Magnum rifle with a 26-inch fluted barrel and a Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish (Barrett part no. 18479) is the folding-stock version of Barrett‘s modular bolt-action precision platform. This model is chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum and finished in Flat Dark Earth Cerakote. It is built around a fully adjustable folding stock, a suppressor-compatible muzzle brake and a match-grade fluted stainless barrel that the owner can swap with a single tool. The two-stage trigger module comes out of the lower receiver without tools, and the ambidextrous controls suit right- and left-handed shooters alike. It is a serious long-range rifle for competition, hunting and precision work at distance.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is .338 Lapua Magnum, a cartridge made for extended-range precision and a favorite in long-range competition.
• The barrel is a 26-inch fluted, match-grade stainless steel tube, a profile that sheds weight while keeping the barrel stiff.
• Rate of twist is 1-in-9.4 inches, matched to the bullet weights this cartridge is normally loaded with.
• The rifle feeds from a 10-round detachable polymer magazine with a drop-free design and a relief-cut magazine well for quick reloads.
• Weight is 14.5 lbs and overall length is 49.4 inches with the stock extended, a manageable package for a rifle of this class.
• The receiver finish is Flat Dark Earth Cerakote, applied over a Mil-Spec hard anodized base for corrosion resistance.
• A folding stock with a push-button adjustable length of pull, recoil pad height and a height-adjustable, reversible polymer cheek piece fits the rifle to the shooter and folds to the right for transport.
• The muzzle brake is a high-efficiency design that is compatible with Barrett AM338 and AML338 suppressors and tames recoil.
• A thumb-operated safety with a 45-degree throw can be set up for right- or left-handed use, so the rifle works for either shooter.
• The adjustable two-stage trigger module lifts out of the lower receiver without tools, which simplifies field service and adjustment.
